Today on the podcast we are joined by former Dublin Senior Footballer, All Ireland Champion, and published author, Shane Carthy! Shane's story is one that bounces from the highest highs, to the lowest lows. At age 18 he achieved a dream for many football players in becoming an All Ireland Senior Champion, and on paper everything seemed to point towards the beginning of a very happy and successful adult life. However, despite all the external hilights, internally Shane was fighting a battle few people knew about. He speaks so openly about his struggles with depression, which ended up in him spending 11 weeks in St. Patricks Mental Hospital where he slowly but surely began to see light at the end of the tunnel. Since then, Shane has taken his experience going through those times to be a pillar of hope for people who are facing similar situations in their own lives - beginning with delivering speeches and talks, all the way up to releasing his autobiography, 'Dark Blue'. It was a fantastic and refreshing conversation with Shane who pulls no punches in describing what he went through, and I'm sure you'll get loads of value from it! Mental health is such an important topic, and it's so important that conversations like this can be had openly. So please share this with anyone you think might benefit from hearing it :) Enjoy, hope it helps The Molloy Twins

// August 11th, 2024 // In any given year, about 1 in 4 adults suffer from a diagnosable mental health disorder. In today's world, teens mental health is maybe at an all-time low. It can be so hard to find God in all of our struggles with mental health, so we wanted to spend a series talking about mental health, and how God meets us in the midst of our battles. Week 1 is about depression, and Zach talks about what depression is, where it's found in scripture, and where God is in the midst of depression. *If you are struggling with depression, there is help available. Please don't hesitate to reach out to our staff, we can walk alongside you and help you find the resources you need (zthompson@eastview.church, ksmith@eastview.church). If you or someone you know is considering suicide, please call 988 (Suicide Hotline).*

I can feel beaten down until I even despair of life itself. But my feelings aren't forever. God always provides help and hope when I need a way out.

After getting married she moved to Virginia, USA where she worked as an elementary school ESL teacher. Amn became a first time mother to a baby boy in September 2021.

We already knew eating quality food make you feel great, and conversely that eating like trash makes you feel like... trash. What we might not know however that the gut brain axis, where your foods DIRECTLY impact your mood and immunity is like a secondary nervous system. Probably worth considering every time we make the brilliant decisions to eat quality foods and the immediately gratifying decisions to eat like trash pandas. Specific Health Benefits of Probiotics and Prebiotics: Digestive Health: Probiotics: Regular consumption of probiotics can help manage symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), including bloating, constipation, and diarrhea. For instance, strains such as Lactobacillus rhamnosus and Bifidobacterium lactis are shown to improve intestinal health and bowel regularity. Prebiotics: Foods rich in prebiotics like garlic and onions support the growth of beneficial bacteria, which enhance gut barrier function and can reduce the risk of gastroenteritis and infections. Mental Health - Depression and Anxiety: Gut-Brain Axis: Both probiotic and prebiotic foods can affect the gut-brain axis, a critical pathway that mediates the impact of gut health on mental health. For example, the fermentation of prebiotics like inulin from chicory root can produce short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) that possess anti-inflammatory properties, reducing systemic inflammation that is often linked with depression. Clinical Evidence: Studies suggest that certain probiotics (often referred to as "psychobiotics") can produce and deliver neuroactive substances like serotonin and dopamine, which act on the brain to improve mood and cognitive function. A meta-analysis has shown that patients who consumed probiotics saw a statistically significant improvement in depression symptoms. Immune System Enhancement: Probiotics: They can enhance immune function by increasing the production of immune cells like macrophages and lymphocytes. Regular consumption of fermented dairy products has been linked with reduced severity and duration of respiratory infections. Prebiotics: By supporting the growth of good bacteria, prebiotics help compete against pathogenic bacteria, enhancing immune response. Foods like bananas and leeks that are high in prebiotics can thus help bolster your body's defenses against common pathogens. Weight Management and Metabolism: Influence on Obesity: Research has indicated that the microbiota composition influenced by diet can affect the body's metabolism and fat storage. For example, a diet high in prebiotic fibers can help manage body weight and improve metabolic health by enhancing feelings of fullness and reducing inflammation. Probiotic Intervention: Some studies suggest that probiotics can influence hormone levels that regulate appetite and fat storage, such as leptin and ghrelin, potentially helping to prevent obesity. Integrating Probiotics and Prebiotics into Your Diet: Daily Intake Recommendations: While specific doses can vary, incorporating a variety of these foods into your daily meals can provide a sustained source of support for gut and overall health. Practical Tips: Include a probiotic yogurt or kefir at breakfast, add garlic or onions to your cooked meals, snack on bananas or apples, and choose whole grains like barley and oats as part of your meals. By understanding and leveraging the specific benefits of probiotics and prebiotics, you can consciously tailor your diet to not only support general health but also address specific conditions and improve your mental and physical well-being.   #GutBrainConnection #MentalHealth #NutritionPodcast #BrainHealth #HealthyEating #Psychobiotics #MoodFood #MentalClarity #DietAndWellness #Probiotics

Depression is a mood disorder that causes a persistent feeling of sadness and loss of interest. Also called major depressive disorder or clinical depression, it affects how you feel, think and behave and can lead to a variety of emotional and physical problems. You may have trouble doing normal day-to-day activities, and sometimes you may feel as if life isn't worth living. More than just a bout of the blues, depression isn't a weakness and you can't simply "snap out" of it. Depression may require long-term treatment. But don't get discouraged. Most people with depression feel better with medication, psychotherapy or both. For more on DrStem's Services visit www.drstemmie.com

Navigating the intricacies of PCOS and mental health is a dance I've come to know all too well. In this episode, we'll go through the maze of emotions that accompany a chronic condition like PCOS, from grappling with the stages of grief post-diagnosis to the realities of mental health concerns with depression and anxiety when living with PCOS. I discuss my own path, marked by personal losses and triumphs, to illuminate the powerful link between our physical health and our mental well-being, and how the food we eat plays a critical role in this delicate balance.  We'll also discuss some strategies to help with our mental health in PCOS. The Keto Kamp Podcast With Ben AzadiBen Azadi, founder of Keto Kamp reveals everything you want to learn about intermittent...Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify Fit, Healthy & Happy Podcast Welcome to the Fit, Healthy and Happy Podcast hosted by Josh and Kyle from Colossus...Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify Support the showDid this podcast help you?

Fad diets generally focus on foods to ban from your plate. It's an approach that can lead to an effect we get into in this episode called the "what the hell effect." And it's spot-on. So, how can that effect be avoided? We'll highlight an approach that focuses not just on foods to add, but paying attention to how those foods add to your mental health.

Depression als Christ, geht das?Eine Predigt mit Franzi und Janice Braun (ICF Zürich) aus der Serie ''Mental Health''. Wie gehe ich mit Depression um? Gibt es Wege raus aus dieser Schwere, dieser Dunkelheit und der Abwärtsspirale? Als Kind stets fröhlich und unbeschwert, zieht Janice während ihrer Jugendzeit ein Strudel aus Traurigkeit in die Tiefe ihrer Gefühle. Hilflos und verwirrt verdrängt sie lange Zeit, was sie nicht einordnen kann. Als die Verzweiflung zu groß wird, sucht sie professionelle Hilfe - und findet neuen Halt. Doch gerade, als alles endlich perfekt zu sein scheint, schlägt die nächste Welle der Krankheit über ihr zusammen. Janice erzählt, wie sie gelernt hat, mit ihrer Depression zu leben, Warnhinweise zu erkennen und welche Punkte ihr ganz konkret im Alltag helfen. Es lohnt sich, nicht aufzugeben: Denn dieses Leben ist viel zu kostbar, um nicht jeden Tag zu feiern! Janice Braun ist Jugendpastorin in der ICF Church in Zürich, Sprecherin und Autorin von ""Der Ozean in mir. Am Tiefpunkt meines Lebens war Gott da.

This episode is all about the normal, daily emotions we encounter each day. Listen in as Dr. Henry Emmons discusses how emotions can serve as your compass, pointing the way to what needs your attention. As you listen, you'll learn how giving your emotions the attention they seek can allow them to transform and eventually move on. Henry will also highlight the mind's inclination to seek reasons for our negative emotions, which can lead to something called self-derision. Understanding this dynamic can be transformative for your resilience and mental health.      Sources and Notes: This episode is part of our Podcourse!

Over 100 friends packed the room, and in excess of 250 joined the FB livestream.   Without discussion, we sit amidst an opioid and fentanyl epidemic. National suicide rates have reached true crisis levels. Alas, addiction and poor mental health casts their anguish upon us all. Eager to transcend the torment, chiefly we lack the comprehension of where or how to begin. Realities of outpacing the suffering lingers as a far-off fantasy, and a wealth of us are convinced there is no way out. Join author Roger Ray Bird and a cast of Bright Sparks for a demystification of the self-destruction. Roger shares his personal experiences as a user and drug dealer in Baltimore, and reads from his new book Daddy, Why Were You A Drug Addict? Bright Spark cast:Shequila Hoye knows the all-consuming grip of addiction, having witnessed her mother's struggle for over two decades. Shequila shouldered the role of caregiver to her younger siblings while still a child herself. Her grandmother's apartment in the Allied Drive neighborhood, where she spent time with 15 other grandchildren, became a refuge for her. After being honorably discharged from the United States Navy, Shequila went on to earn her Master's Degree in Social Work. Horrifically in 2020, her 20-year-old brother died of an accidental overdose. Shequila helped launch Madison's CARES team in 2021, providing an alternative response to behavioral health-related 911 calls. While working to break down barriers to mental health care, she soldiers on toward a Doctorate in Social Work.Michelle Kullmann lost her son Cade Reddington to a single-pill fentanyl poisoning in 2021. As a dynamic mother and 30-plus years spent in the Madison business community, Michelle utilizes her learned experiences to advocate for fentanyl poisoning awareness and harm reduction. Michelle spreads critical information gained since Cade's passing on the opioid and fentanyl paradox so fellow families can learn from her family's tragedy and hopefully save lives. #forever18 #onepillcankillLaura Bird is a Milwaukee native, and now lives in Madison with her husband, three teenagers, and small dog. She's a middle grade author, an ambassador for the Wisconsin Book Festival, a board member for the Madison Public Library Foundation, and co-founder of the Great Midwest Book Group. She also freelances for BRAVA Magazine.  Tyler “TJ” Schmidt was an average Milwaukee teenager until drugs slithered into his world. After the U.S. government dramatically restricted pharmaceutical OxyContin pill production, Tyler switched to heroin. While partying inside his freshman college dorm room, TJ's visiting uncle died of a drug overdose, and Tyler served prison time after being charged under the Len Bias law. Then however doubly tragic, in 2020 Tyler's girlfriend died from drugs. Surviving multiple overdoses and several stays in rehab facilities himself, Tyler is now three and a half years clean, and aims to make his life purpose helping others find their path away from addiction. Roger Ray Bird forfeited his mother to a Maryland mental hospital when he was four, and began abusing drugs at age 12. At 16 Roger became a national statistic, high school dropout. After surviving two overdoses, then exhausting a 13-year addiction, he traded drugs for a professional mountainbike race career. Following 20 years at Trek Bicycles, Roger now mentors young adults and their parents struggling with addiction.The book:Daddy, Why Were You A Drug Addict?: Winning the War Amid My Angel and Devil Withinby Roger Ray BirdISBN 979-8218286651Available on Amazon for $11Roger's social directory: HERE

“The body needs to keep score of these traumatic events to protect itself. But unfortunately, this can cause anxiety. This can cause depression. This can cause substance abuse,” explains Dr. Jody Joshua Adewale. Dr. Jody is a clinical psychologist with his own practice and also a professor at East Los Angeles College. Today, Dr. Jody joins host Calvin to talk about Black male mental health, depression, and toxic masculinity. Later, they are joined by Charles Couch and Corbin Coleman who are the creators of the documentary, I'm Good Bro: Unmasking Black Male Depression.    Historically organizations have used medical experimentation abuse in the Black community. This has caused an understandable distrust of authority figures and a tendency to shy away from seeking resources for mental health. Thankfully, things have begun to shift positively as more Black celebrities come forward about their own mental health struggles. Black men have started to be more in tune with their feelings and are beginning to seek support, however, there is still a stigma against vulnerability that needs to be addressed. It can be really helpful to come at mental health from a liberation framework because that takes into account the marginalization, structural discrimination, and other environmental factors that are ultimately the cause of the mental health issues.    It is important for Black men to be allowed to be vulnerable without judgment. They need to know it is safe to seek resources and to ask for help. Many of the mental health struggles that are faced by the Black community are caused by external factors, and that is a piece that unfortunately medicine tends to overlook. By learning how to be more in tune with their feelings and understanding that vulnerability can actually be a strength, Black men can heal from trauma and move on from toxic masculinity.    Quotes • “I think there's becoming a wave or a shift in thinking where black men and black women are starting to see mental health as a resource as opposed to something to run away from.” (16:09-16:19 | Dr. Jody)  • “Individuals and organizations have used mental health as a way of exerting power and authority over the black community.” (16:47-16:54 | Dr. Jody) • “With these celebrities coming out and speaking about their mental health challenges, it's giving some people permission to do the same.” (18:18-18:24 | Dr. Jody) • “Mental health and medicine really fail to consider the social part of it, the environmental factors that are pulling this out.” (20:52-20:59 | Dr. Jody) • “The body needs to keep score of these traumatic events to protect itself. But unfortunately, this can cause anxiety. This can cause depression. This can cause substance abuse.” (24:07-24:17 | Dr. Jody) • “As soon as you say mental health, or mental illness, especially in the Black community, you're labeled crazy. When everybody has mental health, just like everybody has digestive health, or respiratory health, your mind is a part of your being.” (52:17-52:38 | Charles) • “Vulnerability has been stigmatized as a weakness in the black community when actually being vulnerable is a strength, because basically you're exposing yourself. And a lot of times, black men don't have that privilege just to be human and say, look, things are not good.” (59:26-59:47 | Charles)   Links   Connect with Dr. Jody Joshua Adewale, PsyD, MA: Twitter: https://twitter.com/dr_jodyadewale?lang=en Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oluyumi/ Books Absent Fathers: Understanding Perceptions Adult Males have of their Absent Fathers: https://www.amazon.com/Absent-Fathers-Understanding-Perceptions-Adult/dp/1499246277/ Children's Book: Who Can Curly Trust : https://www.amazon.com/Who-Curly-Trust-Jody-Adewale/dp/1507510462   Connect with Charles Crouch and Corbin Coleman of 4C Visuals Group: Website: https://linktr.ee/4CVisualsGroup Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/4cvisualsgroup  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/4cvisualsgroup/ Documentary: "I'm Good Bro" Part 1 - Unmasking Black Male Depression: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_iCaM84HUg&t=32s  Part 2 - The Year 2020 & Mental Health: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYfa7D3415k&t=6s    About with Southern Soul Live Stream - Podshow   Witty, thought-provoking, and uplifting, Southern Soul Livestream - Podshow is the program that you'll invite friends over to watch every week, where you'll learn about fascinating speakers and get to share in exciting experiences.

As a response to the feedback of last week's episode, it is clear to me that revisiting the topic of stress and anxiety in children and adolescents is greatly needed. The Covid-19 pandemic has impacted us all in more ways than one and although many students are attending school in person again, things are still stressful and uncertain. Our stress and anxiety levels are constantly fluctuating and we are asking our children to be extremely flexible as they are trying to navigate their current year in school.  Today we are revisiting episode 6 with Dr. Stephanie Mihalas. This conversation is so meaningful and relevant to the challenges we are continuing to face. By listening, you'll learn the difference between individual and collective grief, how to address grief associated with the pandemic, the difference between anxiety and trauma, and strategies for managing stress and anxiety.   Show Notes: [2:28] - Dr. Wilson and Dr. Mihalas discuss the grief people are experiencing after losing our normal way of living. [4:29] - We are in a state of individual grief and a state of collective grief. Our feelings of anxiety and grief are a completely normal response. [5:30] - This grief and anxiety isn't a clinical issue unless it gets to the point where you can't function anymore. That would be when you need to reach out for support. [7:10] - Dr. Mihalas says the most important thing we need to do during this time is to acknowledge that our feelings of grief are normal and that we utilize our support systems. [8:13] - Over 70% of parents are stating that they feel stress and anxiety in regards to distance learning. It is tough to parent when you are feeling this way. [8:49] - This is the first time many parents are seeing their own children learn and when they see their inattentiveness or struggle, they wonder if there is a learning disability. [10:54] - Dr. Mihalas also says that parents need to make sure they have dedicated self-care time every single day to avoid burnout and to decompress. [14:03] - There is debate right now about whether we are experiencing a traumatic event or not. Dr. Mihalas says that it depends on the makeup of the family. [15:44] - Some people can also experience anxiety and a PTSD response to the challenges we are facing. [18:00] - The critical factor that compounds this situation is collective family anxiety. Parents want to reassure their children but they are anxious and scared themselves. [19:47] - Stephanie discusses how children can experience a PTSD response during these times. [20:26] - Dr. Mihalas is encouraging parents to be vigilant with monitoring their child's mental health. [22:28] - Anxiety, stress, and PTSD interfere with the learning process. When you seek help for mental health, you are also helping with learning. [23:47] - Children may show their anxiety in different ways. Dr. Mihalas lists several examples of this and emphasizes the importance of taking note of issues that impede learning. [25:15] - There has been focus and concern around learning losses, but Dr. Wilson points out that learning takes place in a social context and losing the opportunity to interact with their peers is something that some children are grieving. [27:08] - Dr. Mihalas lists a lot of ways to think outside the box on how we can have connections with others.  [29:36] - Home used to be the place to connect and unwind, but now it is also used for school and work. Stephanie suggests having some symbolism to separate spaces or times to switch gears.   About Our Guest: Dr. Stephanie Mihalas has a private practice in Los Angeles – The Center for Well Being – where she works on enhancing self-esteem, self-advocacy, and general well-being and happiness in children and families. In her practice, she utilizes a number of techniques including CBT, play therapy, psychodynamic psychotherapy, art interventions, trauma-informed care, and mindfulness techniques.   Connect with Dr. Stephanie Mihalas: Ask Dr. Stephanie ChildNEXUS Profile: Dr. Stephanie Mihalas The Center for Well Being Instagram Dr. Stephanie on Twitter   Links and Resources: ChildNEXUS Live with Dr. Stephanie Mihalas: Family Anxiety and Resilience during a Pandemic Episode 53: Understanding Depression in Children and Teens with Dr. Dorie Weiss Anxiety and Depression in Adolescents Anxiety and the Family Parenting Youth in a World of Rising Suicide Rates CDC Guide: Children's Mental Health - Depression   Join our email list so that you can receive information about upcoming webinars - ChildNEXUS.com The Diverse Thinking Different Learning podcast is intended for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for medical or legal advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

With depression in children and teens on the rise, it is important to know the red flags and what to do to help. 3.2% of children between 3 and 17 are diagnosed with depression but when do you know what is expected sadness and when it crosses into something more serious? Today's guest helps us understand what depression looks like in children and adolescents and what they need and want from their parents as support. Dr. Dorie Weiss joins me today on the Diverse Thinking Different Learning Podcast, and her expertise on this topic guides us to better understand depression. For 20 years, Dr. Weiss has been providing psychotherapy and has successfully helped clients realize their cognitive potential. She has helped clients overcome seemingly intractable challenges including anxiety, perfectionism, depression, ADHD, autism, executive-functioning challenges, self-esteem issues, life transitions, and overwhelming academic stress. The stress and grief from the COVID-19 pandemic have been particularly challenging for children and teens, and although things are much better than they were last year, many kids are experiencing grief and sadness. Listen to find out what this looks like and when to reach out for help for your child.   Show Notes: [1:54] - The stress and grief from the COVID-19 pandemic has been particularly challenging for children and adolescents. [3:35] - Clinically significant depression is unusual sadness for many days. [4:29] - It is important to discuss symptoms with a pediatrician as well as a mental health professional because there could be other underlying issues. [6:40] - A decrease and change in services and inconsistent remote learning has been isolating for children. [8:45] - Younger children who aren't able to communicate their feelings may show them through their behavior. [9:38] - Sometimes teens will not realize their depression but may show red flags like withdrawal and shutting down. [11:11] - Acting out in school is mostly seen as a behavioral problem but depression could be an underlying issue. [13:04] - Undetected learning disabilities or ADHD can contribute to depression. [14:19] - It is very common to see depression and anxiety together. [15:43] - Dr. Weiss describes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. [17:07] - With younger children, Dr. Weiss uses the Zones of Regulation. [18:22] - With teens, she sets up goals and education components to allow them to better understand their feelings and what activities boost their mood. [20:40] - Sometimes negative thoughts and self-talk occur without us even knowing it. [22:01] - A common complaint from teens she works with is that parents are not supporting them in the right way. [24:00] - Educating parents on treatment is crucial. [24:51] - If the depression is treatment resistant, Dr. Weiss refers to a psychiatric evaluation to see if medication would benefit the child. [27:36] - Dr. Weiss suggests daily family meetings to just talk about the ups and downs of the day together. [29:00] - Younger children may not remember what life was like prior to COVID. But, older children and teens do remember and may need to express what they miss. [30:12] - Pairing validation with optimism and gratitude is helpful. [31:49] - Dr. Weiss acknowledges that therapy is not something a lot of teens want to start, so she gives them some of the control and choice.   About Dr. Dorie Weiss: Dr. Weiss is recognized in her field and by her clients for providing empathetic, results-driven psychotherapy and careful and comprehensive psychodiagnostic evaluations that get to the correct diagnosis the first time. Dr. Weiss's approach stems from her belief that optimal results come from working collaboratively with clients, families, teachers, and other treating professionals to generate treatment plans appropriately tailored to individual clients. Leading academic institutions across Los Angeles and elsewhere trust and rely on Dr. Weiss's recommendations. Dr. Weiss takes an individualized approach to each client, drawing from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, family systems, and mindfulness frameworks. She believes effective treatment requires a strong connection between client and psychologist, as well as collaboration with other treating professionals. Dr. Weiss has used this approach to help children, adolescents, adults, and families overcome a wide variety of psychological challenges.   Connect with Dr. Weiss: Dr. Dorie Weiss Website Email - dorie@drdorieweiss.com Facebook Instagram Phone: (424) 209-9877 ChildNEXUS Provider Profile: Dr. Dorie Weiss   Links and Related Resources: Episode 6 - Managing Family Stress and Anxiety with Dr. Stephanie Mihalas Anxiety and Depression in Adolescents Anxiety and the Family Parenting Youth in a World of Rising Suicide Rates CDC Guide: Children's Mental Health - Depression   Join our email list so that you can receive information about upcoming webinars - ChildNEXUS.com The Diverse Thinking Different Learning podcast is intended for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for medical or legal advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
